It's awesome and i want it to go on. Our main character should go to other peripheries and they would basically have to rebrand every time he goes somewhere else.

I see what you are saying. Maybe they should have named it "Investigator" or "Roman" or "Axia – the First Detective". This would allow Antonius to explore not only Britannia (which was filled with all kinds of spooky stuff back then), but places like Francia (Their own ancient gods), Parts of northern Germania (hoards of primitives), maybe even tangle with Viking Gods. The story could go East, somehow tangleing with Dragons, etc. History does show that the Roman Empire did tangle with all of the above, as their reach was vast.

Regardless, I am looking forward to reading the next installment, whatever the name.

you raised a good point. but there has to be a reason it was named after a location and not the character. i still don't know how and if axia will interact with the rest of the valiant universe or if maybe other valiant heroes will become part of axia's story in his (britannic!) future.
anyways, he is my favorite new character in the valiant relaunch and i am very happy that milligan found something in him, which he was able to bring to the valiant universe. can't wait for more!

Yes but that gives them an easier way to introduce a new mini for the character without having to name it The Wrath of Axia USA Reborn III.
